For me, if I ask for an unpopular opinion and you say something about pineapple on pizza I’m going to assume you have no personality.

    “The Beatles are overrated”

    Not only is it untrue, but even if you don’t like their music you’re an idiot if you can’t see their influence.

    Most of our heros in movies actually kind of suck. They are for the most part only able to solve the world through violence because by some magical or supernatural or just bad writing, in an absurd position to do so.

    I blame this on why I have more people willing to literally kill or die for me in my life then willing to engage in uncomfortable dialogue or eat more fiber for me.

    Mine is that every “coffee” that has something more than sugar is a coffee-based beverage and not a coffee

      “You like cream and sugar, not coffee.” Just, I couldn’t stand to try and argue with the guy because it matter so very fucking little to me but enough for me to remember the inanity of the argument.

        I like my sugar with coffee and cream, actually.

        When people say this about a frou-frou latte, I just tell them I don’t actually care - I usually drink black decaf but if I’m paying 6USD for a coffee, I’m making them work for it.

    “Unpolular” is relative to the target audience. I’ll relate to my own social circles here:

    I actually like Nickelback.

    Sure, they’re not exceptional, but mediocrity is hardly a sin (unless it’s AI slop; fuck AI slop). Sure, their music is made to be safe, commercial rock, but that just fills a neat, chill gap in my music taste where LoFi should be (but isn’t; never really vibed with it).

    It’s not the extent of my music taste either. I like Drumstep, Deathcore and plenty more. I just also appreciate some “boring” rock occasionally.

    I don’t really like doors. Not their function but their design. Everyone’s just satisfied with the status quo, like basically the same door for millennium, and no one thinks we should innovate?

      What do want to see different with them? Share or appearance? Do you want more saloon-styled doors or should they have more texture and decorations? Or should they open in different way?

        Im imagining some of my house mates over the years and the inconsiderate nature in which they closed doors in the middle of the night. It’d be nice if that didn’t have to be a concern. No idea what could be done, but so many nights it effected my sleep. Its my biggest pet peeve.

          Perhaps a sliding door with a cushion or something like it on each side, making it sound less if slammed open? Or a door closer arm would do the trick.

            Sliding doors punish door slammer by rolling back open. At least, all the interior pocket doors I’ve experienced. Makes for a good habit correction prpgram

    Often exclusively about the MCU. Just watch the 90’s & 2000’s cartoons if you want a GOOD interpretation of Marvel

    “Kids these days.”

    Shut up, kids have always been shitty, adults have always been shitty, there was never a point in time where anyone ever wanted to talk to a stranger. We all suck all the time and always have, your generation wasn’t any different just because you used different slang and wore different clothes.

      I recall some Roman writer complaining about the worthlessness of the youth and how Rome was doomed.

      Just before a boom of conquest.

      Moralising elders waxing nostaltic have probably been around longer than preserved writing.

      Edit: it was Horace:

      aetas parentum, peior avis, tulit nos nequiores, mox daturos progeniem vitiosiorem.

      Our parents’ era, worse than their ancestors, bore us still worse, and soon we will give more wicked offspring.

      Text and translation obtained via Wikisource: Horace, Odes 3.6, published 24 or 23 BCE, during the earlier years of the reign of Octavian Augustus.

      We could argue about the quality of a youth that bowed to what would be a monarch in all but name, but it’s hard to deny their courage and effectiveness in battle, which would have been an important virtue in Rome at the time. That “wicked offspring” stabilised an Empire wracked by decades of civil war and unrest, expanded it and by Horace’s standards should have been quite honourable.

      (Note: this is not an endorsement, just commentary on the mentalities of the time)

      Lemon is always best, except when it’s lime. But I don’t eat limes, just squeeze them for juice, so lemons still rank higher.

      Rind and all.

    The pineapple on pizza thing is one of them. It can be done, I mean, just don’t make the pineapple chunks overpower the taste of the other flavors of the pizza itself or just add something like ham slices or whatever to make it more palatable.

    Or you know, shut the fuck up about pineapple on pizza and don’t fucking bother. Such a stupid trivial thing that took off for absolutely no reason.

      Yeah I also don’t like pot. Mainly because it smells bad tho… I’ve never actually used it before since I can’t imagine putting something that smells like that near my nose.

        Any hobby that makes you smell like you filled your pants is one that needs to be re-evaluated.
